Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-1922:
-----------------------------------------

Don't use the sequential parser. Only use loadNonSeq(). You'll get better results. The fix that I did was for loadNonSeq(), which is "the future".

> On older pdf files, the NonSequentialParser returns a different PDFVersion than the traditional parser via the call: document.getDocument().getVersion().  
> I think this is because NonSequentialParser is not reading the header but relying on the default 1.4 if no version is found in the trailer.
> Many apologies if this is a duplicate.  I feel like I've seen this issue elsewhere, but I can't track it down.
